The City of Beverly Hills (and specifically, the Rodeo Drive Commission) hosted an event last week where they promised snow! Their promotional materials boasted real snow (enough to make snow angels and have snowball fights, they said!), lots of special offerings and events, late night hours for the many lovely stores, horse-drawn carriage rides (see below) and LA's premier food trucks. Of course mommy and daddy wanted to go! Amma and Baba too. So did most of LA, as it turns out.After the event, mommy said she should have known better to expect anything real in Beverly Hills, land of bleach blondes and silicone. Mommy's friend, Lana, called the manufactured snow that they had "snoap" - a combination of soap and snow. Ha! That didn't stop us from having lots of fun! We enjoyed being snoaped on, popped into a number of stores, mixed and mingled and enjoyed some tasty food from the Border Grill Truck. Daddy's quesadilla was tasty and mommy's ceviche was delightful - and the churros were a perfect evening treat!
These horses were BIG - not small like the ponies I ride at the petting zoo. But I wasn't intimidated -- I wanted to ride them, too!
Amma and I went into Cartier so we could stick our hands out to catch the snow on our hands. I also made her take me into a few other stores. I found a lovely red purse (such a deal at $5,000) and asked Amma to buy it for me. The salesman was amused. Amma was not.
I don't think anyone was surprised that I walked up to a woman I've never met and asked for her doggy's leash. I'm not shy when it comes to my furry little four-pawed friends.
I even made some friends at the fountain! Amma had to stop me from climbing in to join him. I thought he was taking a bath. I love baths.
